Dartmouth College has demonstrated its vigorous commitment to tolerance and the free exchange of ideas this week by extending a job offer to a leading African bishop whose views on homosexuality differ from the views overwhelmingly held by elites.

No, wait. Scratch that. Scratch that utterly and completely.

Dartmouth has retracted a deanship previously offered to Bishop James Tengatenga of the Anglican Diocese of Southern Malawi because he has criticized homosexuality in the past, reports The Boston Globe.

Tengatenga had already quit his post as a diocesan leader of the Anglican Communion (which claims 85 million members worldwide). He will now be out of a job and could have trouble finding one, at least in Malawi, because he took great pains to assuage his critics at Dartmouth by expressing public support for gay marriage and calling discrimination against gays a sin.

Homosexuality remains highly illegal in Malawi.

Trouble started brewing at the Ivy League school at some point after Tengatenga had been appointed to oversee the William Jewett Tucker Foundation, a celebrated campus institution that “seeks to be a nationally recognized model of moral and transformation leadership in higher education.”

Opponents of the appointment seized on a few statements Tengatenga has made in the past. He strongly opposed the election of Gene Robinson, the first openly gay bishop in the Anglican Communion, for example. Also, in 2011, he noted that Anglican dioceses in Malawi stood “totally against homosexuality.”

The vast LGBT apparatus at Dartmouth sprang into action to prevent the appointment of Tengatenga.

“Nobody would actually hire anybody who spoke out privately against apartheid in South Africa but not on the record,” senior lecturer in women’s and gender studies Michael Bronski told The Globe.

Bronski also estimated that some 60 percent of the gay male undergraduates in his courses have been called insulting names or hassled at fraternity parties.
